BX ALDRICH. Your coming in last night, my lady love, Waa somewhat sudden. I was helping Nell To tie tho ribbon of her ringlete : She put the crimson of her mouth np-well, I'm flash and blood-and then you, singing, came Into tho room, and tossed your head for shame. I saw a sort of maiden northern Ugbts Shoot up your cheeks and tremble in your eyes; I Ute such things. I like to see the wind Drive frightened clouds across the skien ; I like the sea, an 1, ?hen it's easily had, A pretty woman-very, very mad 1 I like the dangerous and regal air (You bear a queen's name, and a queen you are,) WIih ?hieb you donned your Thibet opera cloak. And clasped lt with a diamond like a star, Twas charming in my mistress-but, my life, It would not be so charming in my ?vite. I Ul e wild things, as I have said, but then I should not hke to own them. Who would be Proprietor of earthquakes or loose hurricanes, Or comets plunging in celestial seas ? Or wed a maid that could. If she should please, Give me a touch of one and aU of these ? Kot L Don't let a female thunder storm Brood in your eyes, with every nod. and then A flash of angry lightning. You have had Your Maren and April ; no? be June again, And let your fine cut eyebrows' silken span Be brows of promise to your favorite mani I*v? had my laugh, and you your pout, and no? (You'll spoil that rose bud if you twist it sot) Give me both bands, that I may say, "Good Bess, -The good Queen Bess,''and kiss you ere I go The good Queen Bess whose heart, and mind, and face. Teach me to love ALL ?omen-as a noel So, ?hen I kissed your pretty cousin Nell, I honored one wno taught me to admire Mr ?ornen in their twenties-don't yon see ? Bat than, dear Bess, as I ?as standing by her, Her Ups quite close-no? this is entre now Opon my soul, I made believe 'twas you 1 COMMERCIAL. Exports.

The New York Evening Post, of Friday, July 28th, ays: There is one important point, however, wkica is by most persons lost tight of in forecasting the money market in the immediate future. We refer to tho pletho? ra of idle capital in England. Tho rate of interest is down to 2$ cent, a lower point than it has touched lor years. The specie reserve of t e Bank of England is up to one hundred and twelvo mil? lions of dollars, while fiat of the Bank of Westminster fifty millions, while that af tho Bank of Franco is ono hundred and seventy-seven minions. With such ap inert state of things tn thc London money market there can bo no doubt that English capi? tal wUl continue to flow hither, under tho temptation of I a higher rate of interest, and that the existing surplus of unemployed fonds in this market ?ill thus receive ad? ditional accessions. So far as this movement operates on the money market here it is evident that the result must be cither to in? crease the ease, or at least to modify and counteract any causes tending to produce stringency. The loan market is extremely easy, and accommoda? tion on call can be had on Governments at 3o4. and on stocks at 5*6. Discounts' continue duU and inactive, choice bills being very scarce, and passing at Ca7. PRODUCE MARKET.

Nrw Yo RX DBI GOODS MA BRET-For tho week ending Tuesday, July 23-{From the Independent}-Extremo dullness has been the rule of the week in the Dry Gooda business. Commission houses have done but little, the jobbers not muon, and the auctioneers less. But so far as the tone of the market goes and the general feeling of confidence in * speedy revival of an active trade, there has been a decided improvement over last week. There is certainly nothing Uko a despondent feeling, nor any apprehension of a lack of trade when tho time shall arrive for the regular opening ot the tall business. TLC remainder of July may continue dull, bat a gradual chang* will be experienced early in August Considerable orders hare been received from the West for sommer goods, from which it may be Inferred that the light pur? chases of the Spring had been pretty weU exhausted. Country purchasers wlU be sure of finding here abun? dant stores of domestic as w^ll as of foreign goods, when they do come; and their large accumulation will prevent any large ad van oe lo prices. Hardly any changes in prices of domestics are to be noUr-ed. Unbleached Sheetings and Shirrings have been inactivo, and remain the same as last week. For bleached goods there has been less dei and, bot prices are firm. Stripes aud Ticks are little Inquired tor, and only the better quail?en maintain the quoted prices. Denims and Cot tonades are not in demand, and only tho best grades bring the top prices. There is still an indisposition on the part of manufacturers to throw their Fall ai y lor of p ri asa on the market Th ero te a good demand for seasonable styles and tho market is weU supplied. Delaines are not in great request ; the purchasers are holding off for the FaU styles. The demand from tho clothing manufacturers for Silesias continue good, and the same may be said of the Italian cloth and woollens, particularly for cassimeres and satinets. In foreign goods, the market bas been very doll, occasioned in a great degree by the actual and reputed failures of som o large importing houses. Bot prices are firmly mani tam? ed, notwithstanding, and im porta tiens have beem re? sumed, though they faU greatly below the imports lor tho corresponding period of 1860. Thc stock of German cloths on hand ls large-bot prices are firmly main? tained, notwithstanding, and there is not likely to. bo auy falling off ae the season advances. Boston Market.

[Frew tte Shoe and Leather Reporter.] BOSTON BOOT AND SHOE MABKET-For the week end? ing July 25.-DJ the boot and shoo market there has been a continued active demand for all of tho heavier descriptions, and buyers have takeu aud contracted for large stocks for tho Western market, thus early in the season, as an advance in prices has been anticipated for aU goods manufactured lrom stock purchased at recent rates. The principal aavance has been ou goods ma lc Of wax kip and grain leather, and amounts to about eight per cent on prices of sixty du.s since. Incal? boots and shoes there was a little more movement no? ticeable during tho last woek. but tho dcm ind is slug? gish as compared with that for thick boots, and prices have not advanced more than about 4 per cent lhere is a fair stock only on band at presen , aud manufactu? rers are working moderately in this line, not anticipat? ing a very large irado thie fall. Ladies' boots have also been In rather light request thus far, but the prospect is now good for an early demand, and dealers, talune thc coe from other branches of the trade, prices are held at about 6 per cent advance tor aU kinds of women's and children's pegged work for fall and winter wear, lu thc flue q uah ties we do not learn that prices have materially changed, bot are firm with moderate stocks of goods on hand. The shipments from thc Eastern market for the week present a graUfying increase of ubout 8000 eases, mostly for the Western trade, which, fi om present ap? pearances, will take a larger stock cf goods this year than they did last and earlier in thc season. Total ship? ments by rail, 20,607 cases. Total shipments of boots and Bboes by rail and sea tor the week. 22,535. Foreign-Per Persia. Wilmer & Smith's Times, of July 13, says: "Thc re? duction of tho rate of discount by tho Bank of England from 2>i to 2 per cont, although expected for some time, has not yet taken place, notwithstanding that all thc ele? ments to warrant such a course on the part of tho Direc? tors exist, and have been in existence for a fortnight past; and the bullion has been increasing to an almost uupae c. dented extent, while thc demand for its use i as been upon a very limited scale. Thc Bank returns ehow mary important changes, incidental, however, to the disburse? ment of the dividends, and these alterations seem chiefly to have influenced tho Directors in retaining tho quota? tion carrent during thc last few weeks. The demand for money has slightly increased, but as there is an abun? dant supply, the open market rates are extrcinoly easy ; 2 per cent being the quotation for thc be.-t short-dated paper, while, in some instances, business has been trans? acted at1% per cent, it seems impossible that the pres? ent Bank minimum can be maintained much longer."

Among the chief points of excellence of the Chicker? ing Pianos, of which speak the renowned artists in their congratulatory testimonials to the Messrs. Chickering, are the greatest possible depth, richness and volume of tone, combined with a rare brilliancy, clearness and perfect evenness throughout the entire scale; and, above all, a surprising duration of sound, the pure and sympathetic quality of which never changes under the moat delicate or powerful touch. During the past forty-three years this firm has mann* so tor ed 80,000 Jp LA.

THALBERG. I consider Chickering & Sons' Pianos, beyond com? parison, the best I have ever seen in America. GOTTSCHALK. I consider Ohickering & Sons' Pianos superior to any In the world. They are unrivalled for their singing qualities and for the harmonious roundness of their tone. There la a perfect homogeneity throughout ail the registers. The upper notes are remarkablo for a clearness and purity which I do not find in any other instrument, while the base is distinguished for power without harshness, and for a magnificent sonority. WKHLJ. Your Pianos are superior to any I have ever seen lu this country or In Europe. I have n over ht ?rd a tone so perfect; lt j leida every expression that is need sd in moslc, and its quality ls capable of change to meet every sentiment. This is a rare power, and ls derived from the perfect purity of us tone, together with its sympathetic, elastic and weil balanced touch. POZNAN S KI. During the past eight years I have constantly played upon the Justly celebrated Erard Pianos; yours ?re the only instruments that I have found, either here or in Europe, to equal them m all their points of excellence.
